Came here with a friend after a night of drinking and the people working here couldn't be more gracious. We were serenaded with some dude apparently singing some "classic" Egyptian songs all night and the table next to us was celebrating a birthday. Had a nice shawarma sandwich served along with some hummus and pita as an appetizer. I'd go back to this place again, especially since it's down the street from me.
I used to frequent this place OFTEN when I lived around the corner. The staff is super friendly and the food is amazing.
A great restaurant for eating, hanging out, watching Arabic video clips, and/or smoking hookah. A true Arabic experience.
I miss this place!!!!!
Glad I made a pit stop in Astoria, I've been told for a while now that Astoria is the new foodie experience.
I thought of laughed it off, apparently I was wrong especially if you enjoy middle eastern food.
30th ave can be a great place to start, my friend recommended this particular place.
The restaurant has a variety mix of food shwarma and other middle eastern food.
Was tasty and delicious
This place reminds me of home and the "real" shawarmas I used to eat growing up! Really authentic shawarma sandwiches ($4!!!), garlic sauce, baba ghanoush, and kebobs. The servers are friendly and since we are regulars, they recognize our faces and always greet us really nicely. They also have a big backyard type of seating area where you can get hookah if you'd like. I've never tried their hookah, but this is definitely the place to try if you're looking for authentic arabic food.
Be ready to take a slightly long walk if taking public transportation or to park on the smaller side streets if driving. Steinway gets pretty packed, but this is definitely worth the trip!
Love their shawarma on a late night on Steinway. Their hours can vary greatly day to day but the shawarma is great and low-key. It's pretty cheap too! Some places charge and upward of $15 for shawarma which is just way too much for a quick affordable bite.
Nothing like a late night shawarma fix, get some falafel while you're at it.
The shawarma was very tasty, a bit dry though (nothing that a bit of sauce couldn't fix up). If you go in the later hours, I do recommend that you call in advanced that you'll pick up and ask for a time table for when they'll be ready with your food; they make your order on a rolling basis. I for one was there for about 15-20 minutes waiting.
On the plus side the falafel was fresh, cooked right there in front of me.
I'm giving this place 4-stars only because of the phenomenal cold guava, mango, strawberry(?) drink. This drink is layered and absolutely amazing, so memorable.
Their food is satisfactory. Average at best. But this drink. This drink makes this place.
Just had lunch here. Very Nice. The cook recommended fresh trout with Lebanese seasoning with rice and salad. I also ordered a combo of chicken and beef schwarma with humus and fries for dinner. I got it all covered. If you never had schwarma, it is amazing. Try it you'll like it. Keep rocking El Rawsheh
